摘　　要：Thoraco-brachial outlet syndrome (TDSD) or cervical rib brings together all the clinical symptoms (arterial, neurological and/or venous) due to extrinsic, intermittent or permanent compression of the vascular-nervous elements of the root of the upper limb during cervico-thoraco-brachial crossing syndrome. This pathology is relatively common but often overlooked;it affects women more often (between 4/1 and 2/1) and is rare in children. We report the case of a 59-year-old female patient seen in the department for paresthesia and muscular weakness of the upper limbs rated 3/5 on the right and 4/5 on the left progressively evolving over 39 years, electromyography (EMG) showed indicated compression of the brachial plexus and the CT scan confirmed the presence of bilateral cervical ribs fused with the first on the left. She benefited from physiotherapy while awaiting her surgery, and unfortunately, she died of a stroke in the traumatology department. This pathology is the first in our department to be supported by a review of the literature.Thoraco-brachial outlet syndrome (TDSD) or cervical rib brings together all the clinical symptoms (arterial, neurological and/or venous) due to extrinsic, intermittent or permanent compression of the vascular-nervous elements of the root of the upper limb during cervico-thoraco-brachial crossing syndrome.
